Listen to your body is such frustrating advice
I'm pretty far along in my recovery, but one thing I still struggle with is "listening to my body". for example, I had several early signs that a migraine was a real possibility but I kept ignoring them trying to push through and help my friends just to wind up completely collapsing halfway through today with a migraine
I really struggle with noticing physical symptoms that I'm not ok, acknowledging that they're real and not just me "being dramatic", or allowing myself to take care of myself instead of pushing though or bullying myself until my body forces me to shut down
Does anybody relate or have any experience with this?
